Notes
- Bell has auditioned for several modern Transformers series, including the live-action films and Animated (where he auditioned for both Prowl and Swoop), but alas, it was not meant to be. He also auditioned for the roles of Ratchet and General (later Agent) Fowler in Transformers: Prime, but lost the roles to Jeffrey Combs and Ernie Hudson, respectively. He finally returned to the franchise after nearly a decade of trying in Rescue Bots as High Tide. If at first you don't succeed...
- Bell was one of the eight voice actors featured in Shout! Factory's cast reunion in the 25th Anniversary "Matrix of Leadership" Collection of the original series.
